Cloud-wise I agree. I'm a little concerned about the wind, but there should still be enough scopes that can handle it to have the event. -----Original Message----- From: pasmembers-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:pasmembers-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of kjwitts@xxxxxxx Sent: Thursday, February 27, 2014 1:01 PM To: pasmembers@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: Terri Subject: [pasmembers] Re: Weather I say we still hold the event... The weather here is so unpredictable. My hope it that we have a relatively clear evening. There are so many conflicting reports... It was completely overcast last night when I got home from work (6:00) and was hugely clear by 7:30. Right now in central Phx, it's completely clear overhead with wispy clouds north and south. ---- Terri <starstuff@xxxxxxxxx<mailto:starstuff@xxxxxxxxx>> wrote: > What do the rest of you decide? > do the event based on this most recent weather update? > > It's only 1pm. > Sam wants a decision by 3pm, should we hold out a little longer in > case the weather turns bad? > I wouldn't' want the public coming out to a canceled event, if there > is a possibility it will be canceled. > > Terri > > > On Thu, Feb 27, 2014 at 12:52 PM, Eric Steinberg > <eric@xxxxxxxxxx<mailto:eric@xxxxxxxxxx>> wrote: > > > Skippy Sky and CSC have both updated now and are showing pretty > > clear skies for the event hours (in contrast to NOAA and > > Accuweather).
